Position the rubber gasket and place the metal backplate for Intel®
LGA115x socket to the back of your motherboard ribbed side
up (facing away from the motherboard). Align the holes on the
motherboard with holes on the rubber gasket and backplate.
Make sure to orientate the rubber gasket to fit past the
CPU socket ILM backplate. On certain ITX form factor
motherboards, the rubber gasket may need to be trimmed
with household scissors.
Using one hand, carefully rotate the motherboard assembly with the
front side facing up while holding the backplate and rubber gasket in
place with the other hand.

Install four (4) M3 thumb screws into your motherboard. It is
mandatory to put a 0.8mm plastic washer underneath each M3 thumb
screw. Tighten the screws to the metal backplate until you reach the
end of the thread. Using tools (i.e., pliers) is not recommended.
